" The Father and The Son" By Ras Elijah Tafari

3times each,The Lamb and Lion Wept. Supplicating Tears For Peace.

Greetings in the Name of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I the First. Power and Virtue of The Trinity. In the Name of Jah The Father, Jah The Son, Jah The Hola Spirit, One Jah. First. Amen.

In this time of deep meditation and World Tribulation, I wanted to share the importance of  why Emperor Haile Selassie I Wept, and how it is intertwined when Iyesus Wept.  The shortest sentence in Scriptures, shares more than words can say. When one’s think of God, The Almighty Ruler of all,  too often the emotions of The Creator seem unreal or a human invention. As creations or inventions of Jah it is relevant that We and Jah weeps, that as great as Jah is, that it isn’t just The Word that reaches Our Heart, it is the feeling, which is why this sentence, “Jesus Wept.” John Chapter 11:35 goes deeper than words.

Without knowing the past, the present and future will not be understood, To get the fullness we have to go to Scriptures and see the pretext to The Emperor Tears. When reasoning on this topic it is important for the reader to know that We as Rastafari see both Iyesus Kristos, Yeshuah the Messiah, Jesus Christ, as the True Vine to God and Jah’s Son. His place is in Our Father’s Love which He can not be separate. He knows what is to come because His Father has told Him, and allocated the Power of Salvation into Christ Trust. Emperor Haile Selassie I, The Conquering Lion of Judah is the Root of David and King of Kings. This is fact not and opinion, rooted firmly historically and agreed by all nations. In looking at His Life, we cite witnesses, and times and places, to record His Steps that where given to the Earth to witness why we exclaim, He is the Almighty Father of Fathers and Head Creator. His Life is the sequel that Christ referred to when He sat on the donkey  John Chapter 12:14 ” Do not fear, Daughters of Zion, see, your King is coming, sitting on the colt of a donkey.” , This is a reference to Zechariah 9:9 which speaks of How Jah is the likened to the leader of Judah, and a King. Iyesus Christos, never called Himself a King, that was the confusion of the Pharisees and the fear presented to the Romans. Likewise when He was on the donkey,  Iyesus was speaking about the Future King, and who is the King of Zion.  Keep this in mind, because we will forward to this later. Lets go into why Jesus Wept and what does that mean, as we lead up to His Crucification and Resurrection.

In Hebrew the name of Lazarus is EL’azar, meaning “God has Helped.” and he was a good friend of Christ and believed in him as the Son of Jah and loved him. He was one of the few men that Yeshua felt comfortable staying the night, and it was well know Jesus loved him as a bredren. (John11;3 and 11:5) His sister was the women that washed Christ’s feet with her hair, and anointed Christ. So when Christ didn’t come when He got the message that El’azar was sick, and waited purposely for him to die, it raised suspicion. In fact it didn’t take long for the Disciples to be worried about being stoned just walking with him to El’azar house now he had died. It was 4 days after Lazarus died until Christ went to see his family, and they blamed him for his death, simply because they know He can heal the sick. After being let in and Jesus saying to them that El’azar is sleeping and He will wake him up, they were still skeptical. Because it wasn’t clear is this literal or symbolic, but when Christ said, ” Where have you laid him” it became real. Where is the place where he was decided dead by the people. It was when Jesus arrived at the tomb, followed by a mob that He wept. He felt their loss, and hopelessness, and wept. He related in that These tears were     ” for the things that were made for peace.”  When he wept,  the mob saw a man, and related to his tears, and remembered His Power and what He had done. They felt the human-ness of God and felt a sense of peace. It was in stark contrast to the strength they had seen, and yet was strong in its cords to bring forth the Scriptures, such as ” Blessed are the Peace makers for they will be called the sons of God.” He would also bring to mind  that He is a Prince of Peace.  The Book Isaiah 53, speaking that the Messiah would be a man of great sorrow and grief, also a man of peace, who rejects violence.  That He was born to carrying Our Grief and be an offering to peace. He would speak these same words shortly after getting off the donkey, “ Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?” which is the beginning of Isaiah 53.

When Christ cried the first time it was written in Luke 19:41-43  ”41  As He approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it,  and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.”  His tears are interlinked to What would bring Peace.. After Lazarus was had been risen, his purposeful place on the donkey was representative of the Holy Spirit of Jah. To speak again, of what would bring peace.

The donkey itself it s a key and code. I donkey is much different that a horse, and is original in its genetic making, horses are bred. Donkey’s aren’t very “nice” they are sure and stubborn. Jah has used donkey’s through out the Scriptures, and what they do is defend. The are protectors, of horses, cows and Lambs… and people.  They will chase away dogs and be loyal to the meak… The importance of peace and defending the meak are interlinked.

After weeping the second time, then asks Martha to push the boulder out the way. And tells El’azar the Come out!

Everything being done would be a preview of what was to come in His Resurrection as well as the set up for why the State would want to kill Him. By raising the dead on the fourth day, He would make believers and enemies like no other time, and knew He would be giving His Life so that the dead would live. So that they could come out of the shadows death and their vanity.  This is relevant to us all, in knowing that no matter how dead you think you are, or how smelly the cave, that The Almighty can raise us up. Through Our Oneness with Him, Awaits the Peace of Eternal Life. When Lazarus was arisen it was on the fourth day it was so the Priests couldn’t deny that Lazarus was dead. His flesh was rotting and was then renewed. Jesus and he also would be marked men.  In John 11:50  the same priests and pharisees saw and said, that if people believe in the Christ, and that Lazarus was risen from the dead then they would have no power, and lose their nation to the Romans. The priests decided to sacrifice Iyesus Christos, to ” save their entire nation.” not seeing that they were fulfilling the prophecies Isaiah 53 again.

The last time it was written that Christ Wept was on the Cross. For the Third and last time He would cry would be to Jah, written in the book of Hebrews 5:7. “ Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared.”  The word “feared”, in that He was heard in that he feared, is also cited in the NIV as Christ was heard because He submitted, and therefore was peace. “because of his reverent submission.” His tears here also show His prayers and supplications, which would be for our trespasses and blindness. For us all to see, Once again He cried for us, for our humanity to arise and be resurrected as well as our divinity. Silently calling for us to Come out and fulfilling the last part of Isaiah 53. 11  ”He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”

As we witness, the boulders would have to be moved again, for there to be another resurrection. This would be the finale Word, that the Son and Father are One, and that neither death nor captivity can hold captive Jah, for He Conquers Death and is the Life Giver. That those who believe would know the gift of Eternal Life is here and now. As it was written, Jah gave Him His Portion with the Great, and He divided His “spoil”, His Gifts to those who are Strong of Faith. This is also when the Holy Spirit is unleashed on the Earth. Christ taught that He had to go in order that His Spirit could be fostered within you, His Words would bring a lot of meditations when it came to John chapter 16:6 and would be the prelude to His Imperial Majesties presence to come.  ” 6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

Remember these words, spoken that “He” The Father of Creation would glorify Christ and that He will show you all that is of His Son to you, and that Christ would do likewise. That the Word of God the Father would be the Son and The Word of the Son would be the Father.

These are the Tears and Teachings of The Lamb, Let us move to meditate on the Tears and Teachings of The Lion.

3 Times Iyesus Kristos, Jesus Christ Cried. 3 times it was noted Emperor Haile Selassie I The Lion of Judah cried.

Emperor Haile Selassie I on the Donkey

The Book of Zechariah 9′s prophecy, the one that Christ reminded the people when He sat on the Donkey to proclaim the King is Coming, He speaks on He that is coming to declare Peace to all Nations.  ”Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.

11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

12 Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;

13 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.”

It is clear Zion is real place in which a war against Greece would also come, which is the Books Of Maccabees. In this Prophecy The Most High through Zechariah Has Declared the King of Zion would come on a Donkey as did Christ, and in this prophecy The Lord also declares that Judah is His.

Let Us remind the reader, that Ethiopia is seen as the Garden and Zion to the people historically until present. It is also considered Zion on Earth by the Oldest Christian Kingdom of Ethiopia and has its roots of being seen as Zion in the Psalms of David. (Psalms 87) The Love of that God has for Israel is compared to the Love He has for Ethiopia in Amos Chapter 9 verse 7:Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the Lord.” So it is of upmost importance to realize the seriousness of Emperor Haile Selassie I official titles being ” King of Zion.” and Jah’s Love for Ethiopia.

We start on the Donkey 1936 in Ethiopia, with The Conquering Lion of Judah. The Blood of the Covenant. When Italy betrayed their treaties made with Ethiopia and the League of Nations, They Betrayed the Holy Trinity, and attacked Zion.  This marked the beginning of WW2 and much more.

In the prophecy spoken by Zechariah, in the same sentence where he speaks about He rides on donkey he says ” He is Just, and He has Salvation.”  What Emperor Haile Selassie I said before the League of Nations is that He is here for Justice for His People, and that if His warning if listened to could achieve salvation,  instead they ignored HIM and WW2 and Europes destruction was the judgement. “..My people and give Europe a warning of the doom that awaits it, if it should bow.” This was the most prolific speech of 20th Century as the only Head of State to address the League of Nations ever. He spoke about The Kingdom of God, and the Christ Covenant that no nation was above the any other, apart from His Kingdom. That God and History would remember their judgement. He spoke Peace to the Heathen but they choose to try to Crucify His Imperial Majesty in the name of Appeasement and racism.  Before speaking to the assembly He was attacked with jeers from fascists , a stand was made then and there. It went dark 3 times on floor while Police arrested and ejected the racists and heathen. Speaking about Deadly poisonous rain that was brought forth by Italy, with the blessing of the Vatican, it became clear that Only The Almighty Could Save Ethiopia from the cruel hands of death that Italy had already brought.

The Book of Revelations would reveal chapter after chapter what happened, but that’s not where I am going, it is to when He would weep. You see, When His Imperial Majesty left Ethiopia in 1936 in Exile, He first went to where Iyesus Kristos Rose from the dead outside Jerusalem. At The Church Holy Sepulcher, He re-enacted the resurrection of Christ with Monks and Priests on the Roof of the Church in the late night hours. His Christ Like Energy and Appearance was shared across the world. For the First Time it was also public that Ethiopia had the Ark of the Covenant. The Blood of David and the Ark of Covenant, The King of Kings, for all to see as He proclaims the Power of the Resurrection of Christ. Haile Selassie I in Jerusalem Easter.maxresdefault

He would arrive in Bath, in the United Kingdom where He would spend 5 years in exile. It was during that time that we saw Marcus Garvey and many others feel that they had been betrayed. That Ethiopians were dying and His Imperial Majesty could save them but didn’t come. This was the Lazarus moment, where no one knew that by leaving Ethiopia He would save the World and become the voice of consciousness of the Earth for decades. No idea that He would light the fire liberate all of Africa and Asia. They didn’t understand for they knew not what Made Peace.

It was in the remarkable documentary ” In the Footsteps of the Emperor ” that I first heard of the first time He was seen weeping before others. His Imperial Majesty loved children, and in 1924 when He first went to Jerusalem He adopted 40 Armenians children that were left orphaned after the Armenian Genocide committed by Turkey. These children were be taking of as well as the 8 ( 7 Grand) children He had living at the FairField House in Bath. All had to be taking care of as well as many others abroad in school. His Imperial Majesty had a Church on the grounds as well as 3 Ethiopian Orthodox Priests that were always dressed in Black . It was at this same time as this article is being written presently, “The Feast of the Passover” That the Nanny of the Children of FairField House, Ruth Haskins, recalled The Emperor would wash the Priest’s feet as Christ did before His Crucifixion. She also witnessed that she saw HIM weep.

The House had a good radio and they were able to get a recording of what was going on in Ethiopia, and when it began to play, the sounds of bullets and screams filled the air. It seemed to never stop, recalls Ms. Haskins, before all the family as He sat upright, Head straight. ” …Everyone looked very solemn, the Emperor sat with His Hands on His knees.. very relaxed, His Hands at the back I already noticed were very badly popped, pocked, he had been umm,..sometime the children told me He had been in a battle, and the Italians had used Mustard Gas, and some of it had got on the back of the Emperor’s Hands, and so He had these quite sizable dents. And I suddenly realized that the tears where rolling down His Face, and splashing onto these damaged hands, and although I was only 16 I thought that was terribly sad, and it was of Great Significance, and I think that memory of The Emperor’s Tears will always stay with me.”   This spoke about in the documentary.In the Footsteps of the Emperor. Documentary and account of Haile Selassie Weeps.

She was right in its Significance. Once again why Christ Cried for Lazarus is multiplied by the Emperors Tears. There sadness still is even when there is the noblest of death. That through they have Life Eternal that there smiling face would be missed, that there voice wouldn’t be heard. He knew that though Resurrection was near, countless Ethiopia patriots where today not with us, so that we could be here today. Like how many children had to die for Christ to be born, so it this moment, tens of thousands of first born sons died so that  The Coming of the Lion and the Lamb could be full filled. Not only did they not die, but live forever both Here on Earth and Heaven, and their sacrifices are still bearing fruit. For because He as God and Man are Related to every one is who fighting for what is Righteous, Just and True, He feels their sorrow and pains. So much so that tears collect on that which brings every mind to the sacrifices that Jesus Christ made for us on the Cross. There is not greater Sacrifice anyone can give than that themselves in full, it is why Christ spoke and was heard when was on the Cross, being remembered because, ” reverent submission” and His peace. The Emperor sat with His Hands on His Knees Still, and His tears are His Supplication. His Power and Comfort in His ability to relate and be one in the valley of Death. Having been resurrected, yet still waiting for the moment that would resurrect the World, Africa, His Throne and Ethiopian Nation as ONE.

Essentially, these pills enhance the blood flow to the penis. cialis online purchase That moment of resurrection would occur in 1941 When His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I and Empress Itege Menen once again ascended the Throne. It was 5 years to the day, and like the five wounds that Christ had been inflicted with, Emperor Haile Selassie I lead a people who had been resurrected and whose wounds were still visible. He brought the Power of Jah’s Mercy by His Proclamation of Mercy where He teaches forgiveness, and reminds the people of Love. This speech, ” The Proclamation of Mercy ” is beyond prolific, it serves as message of the Fortitude that Ethiopia and Conquering Lion of Judah have for being examples of Christians. Ethiopia was the First to be Freed by the allied forces in WW2,  but it took far too long for the World to heed The Emperor’s warning, and now the fate of Ethiopia was unleashed globally. He had come with Mercy and Judgement with a tongue that could smite the nations. “Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.” He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.” Revelations 19:5.  His Imperial Majesty carried both the scepter and a rod of iron during His Entire Reign and would often be seen with the Rod of Iron publicly.  His Imperial Majesty would be the only Head of State to regain His Country and once again rule.

In the decades to come The Emperor showed the World How to Make Peace. He immediately started working on a replacement for the League of Nations and together with President Roosevelt and his wife from the USA, and Organized and Founded the United Nations. His and Her Imperial Majesties worked both locally and internationally to free the minds and bodies of people from the colonial past. He Founded the Organization of African Unity and worked tirelessly to free nations non violently from occupation and colonial empires. He also was willing to train soldiers from across Africa and teach them to fight for freedom. Nelson Mandela was one of these men.  There is so much I could write on, however I want to go now to when His Imperial Majesty weeps again, and what He said.

On the Passing of Empress Itege Menen. Feb. 15 1962

We are pleased with the speech Our Prime Minister delivered yesterday on behalf of Our Ministers and Our people concerning the demise of Her Imperial Majesty Itegue Menen in which he adequately described her kindness and virtues.

All of you knew her well but she was more intimately known by I. She was devoutly religious and did not lose her faith even in the time of hardship. During the memorable days of Our companionship We never had differences that needed the intervention of others. As Sarah was to Abraham, so was she obedient to I. Our wishes were mutual until we were separated by the Almighty. Her assistance for the good of the young, the old and the needy requires no testimony for they are greater than thoughts and words.

We have been extremely pleased to live long enough in the perfect union that enabled us to see our offspring, our grandchildren and our great grandchildren. We are thankful to the Almighty for having vouchsafed to us that long uninterrupted union which is not very common in the world today: There could be no more profound prayer for I to utter.

In spite of Our utmost efforts efforts to save her life in her time of illness, she was overtaken by the fate of Adam and passed away.

We cannot fly in the face of the Almighty, nor can We afford to be idle. Now that the time of mourning has come to an end, the public and our officials must attend to their duties. As idleness is injurious to the welfare of the country, as from Monday everyone should return to his work.

A large number of people have come from the Provinces to take part in Our mourning. Since We do not wish them to continue because this will disrupt normal life, it would be better for them to send two or three representatives with letters.

We are deeply touched by the expressions of grief both on the part of Our people and the foreign communities.

This is not the first time that Our people have joined Us in Our mourning. When Our beloved son, Prince Makonnen, passed away they expressed their grief in no less measure that We ourselves. They have even contributed of their own free will to erect a monument in his honour.

We pray the Almighty shall recompense you for your deeds.

When Itegue was sick the general public, following the events through the radio, shared Our anxiety. To the doctors and her personal attendants We owe a debt for their untiring assistance. May these tears We shed be accepted by God as price for peace in Ethiopia and in the world.”

In the closing Words HIM says once again in that which was echoed when Christ Cried in Jerusalem, and on the Cross. Luke 19:41  ”As He approached Jerusalem and saw the city, He wept over it” 42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.”

His Tears He Prays be accepted as a price for Peace in Ethiopia and the World, that which was hidden from ours eyes. Not only is international peace hidden, but also the peace a Man and Woman share which He notes is ” not very common in the world today”.

It is because of Her that He weeps, and pronouncing it publicly, shares that which was hidden  ” We have been extremely pleased to live long enough in the perfect union that enabled us to see our offspring, our grandchildren and our great grandchildren. We are thankful to the Almighty for having vouchsafed to us that long uninterrupted union which is not very common in the world today: There could be no more profound prayer for I to utter.” True Peace. While in anguish He is still at Peace, and longing to share it with the World so that we may know The Almighty Power of Peace.

While calling death ” The Fate of Adam” He shows both His Divinity and Humanity at once. His Peace, therefore His Oneness.

The Third Time and last time it was recorded that The Root of David, Emperor Haile Selassie I wept was in Jamaica. It is there we see the Resurrection complete. It was there that He saw His Children, those who are called by His Name, Rastafari, after being massacred stand strong in the thousands without fear of death. The very presence of a Dreadlocked Rastaman in the city was punishable by a death sentence. Rastafari were the lowest of society and seen and treated terribly. They knew they may be murdered as they had in Coral Gardens a few short years before.

David Katz wrote: “ When the Imperial plane landed and Selassie appeared at the door, there was sheer pandemonium as hordes of Rastafari stormed the plane; after failing to calm the crowd, the Emperor wept, and retreated back into the aircraft, until Rasta leader Mortimer Planno finally achieved calm, allowing the Emperor to disembark.”

Here we see that in Great Joy The Emperor Wept, visibly there for all to witness, was the answer to the Prayers of both Christ and His Imperial Majesty,  sought as a supplication, that we may know what peace is made of. It was made evident by Mortimer Planno achieving ” Calm.” The Emperor disembarked and walked with the Rastafari and all the people.

“That experience is something I will never forget,” says promoter Copeland Forbes, who was chosen to be Selassie’s official car door opener. “I don’t know if you want to call it a miracle, but it was raining heavy, and when the plane popped over the clouds, the sun came out. When the plane touched down on the runway, the pilot pulled the window (open) and put out an Ethiopian flag, and the plane was surrounded by hundreds; I saw people leaning up by the plane wheel, smoking a chalice, and drum beating, so the official welcome party had to be abandoned.”

Rastafari showed no fear, just Rejoicing and Praise of the Almighty, while knives pointed at their throats, and jet fuel in the air, RASTAFARI charged forward and lit a fire on their chalices. They had already be martyred and returned.  Some speculate that if the Emperor hadn’t come to Jamaica, there wouldn’t be surge of Rastafari in the world today and that Reggae may have never become what it did. His Coming in Flesh, gave birth to an International Movement that would bring the Truth to Earth and Proclaim the Glory of Ethiopia, Beta Israel, Tribe of Judah. That He is both the Lion and Lamb. In His Resurrection we are Resurrected. To Be Peace, is to know Peace, and it Biblically Important to realize The King of Peace, was there in Genesis, and in Revelations. In the Order of Melchizadok, the King of Peace, His Imperial Majesty was Crowned 1930 while reciting Psalms 110. It is known that Melchizadok, is the first appearance of God in Flesh in the Scriptures, as the       “King of Salem”, As it is Peace that Emperor Haile Selassie I, The King of Kings Brings.

There are many speeches about Peace spoken by HIM that need study and sharing, and it is interlinked to that His Great Hope is that we can create a peaceful future, that is why it is so important to know what it is that makes peace occur. For so many have wept, that it wasn’t known how to achieve the peace needed for all mankind to be at one, and truly be righteous. His Imperial Majesty once said, ” Men were supposed to be the equals of the living angels who unceasingly sang praises before the eternal God. Had this been so, peoples of the world would not have been divided along lines of enmity. In truth there is no legitimate reason or good cause which justifies war.” page 40, of the English translation of My Life and Ethiopia`s Progress  Volume Two: Addis Abeba 1966 E.C

He also said on that same Christmas message: ” When He sacrificed himself at Golgotha for the atonement of our sin, He prayed with His last breath for the forgiveness of those who had tortured Him saying, ‘Father, forgive them for they know not what they do’. Shame on those of us who are Christians and do not follow the way of the Savior of the World, whose life was filled with kindness, humility, and martyrdom! If we lived by the laws he gave us and were worthy of being called Christian, peace would have reigned on this earth.”

Indeed in this time, the shame is on those who didn’t listen to either Iyesus The Christ or His Imperial Majesty, for they co-exist in The Power of the Trinity. Imagine what the Earth would look like if we had… There would be no more nuclear weapons, and human rights would be seen as God Given. That the Earth and its environment would have the respect due, and the World would be united in a common goal of working together to build hospitals and uplift society in general.  His Imperial Majesty being able to share those deeds through out the world, allowed ones to not just imagine but see it happen to a degree. His Example showed the same strength needed by Christ and Ourselves to be Good people, a life filled with kindness, humility, and martyrdom. He proved likewise as Christ did, that martyrdom isn’t the end, in fact both conquered death and have Resurrected! They have showed it isn’t about the flesh, but the Spirit, and what does a body mean when The Lion and Lamb lives in the Hearts of All. Waiting for all to know themselves as ONE. We all have the Holy Spirit in Us!  We  people are the Resurrected people, and in every Christian it should be evident in our lives that Our Lord and Savior Lives! That the King of Kings, and Conquering Lion of Judah lives, Within all of Creation, it is up to us to see HIM within. The Powers of the Holy Spirit has shown itself true by His Inspiration, Rastafari and Christians across the Earth have witnessed the Almighty Break their chains and deliver them. We See Christ within Ourselves, and Ourselves within Our Father and King, Emperor Haile Selassie I. Fulfilling the Power and Virtue of the Trinity. In His Name and For His Name was, is and forever will be, a pursuit of Peace for all. For in the name of the Nazarene, Yeshua, or Jahshua, is the extolling of Jah the Father, declaring that Jah is Salvation as the meaning in Hebrew. In the Name of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I,  is the acknowledgement that the Power of the Jah is in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Unified.  They do not speak of themselves but each other, they complete each other, as mankind and God complete each other. Like how man and woman complete each other, which the Emperor and Empress Reminds us Our Unity is the most profound prayer we could ever offer.

Thank you for your time, and contemplation. These are the topics and subjects that are most important in our life times, simple soul understandings. Why are we here, and what are we here to do. The answer of where are we and where is God is for us to see in the lives and teaching of the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of God. How their tears are reflections of Our greatest hopes and dreams, to know would bring you peace. Peace be with you all, may we Rise from the dead together. Mighty in Our Deliverance and Comforted by His Peace. Let us bring peace into this world, through the knowing what brings peace. One Perfect Love.

Jah Rastafari. Atse Haile Selassie I. Power of the Trinity.

Selah.

In The Name of Jah The Father, Jah The Son, Jah The Holy Spirit. One Jah. Amen.

7 Kingsibles of what makes Rastafari unique.

05_p

There are many differences in traditions and houses of Rastafari and as we look through out the existence of the Movement  from 1930 onward, we can see a basic outline that separates the Rastafari Movement from other faiths. Without trying  to divide but to show the specifics and uniqueness of the movement, study our strengths in the identity of Rastafari as a people. These are 7 Kingsiples of what makes Rastafari, Rastafari.

First and foremost that Haile Selassie I is the Almighty in Flesh, Supreme Head Creator. Some will use the term “God” while others prefer not to use the term due to its western influence and conditioned notions. Others see HIM as “Christ” returned, such as 12 Tribes of Israel, and His Divinity is based on individual theology of who Christ is. If ones believe Christ is God, then Haile Selassie I is seen as both. Because of these different views we have several branches or Houses, that have lessons that speak on this subject specifically.

Second, We as Rastafari research and have independent thoughts concerning The Bible and Scriptures. We study many books, including those linked to the Bible such as the The Book of Thomas and the Book of Enoch. We stress the ability to read and study in a balanced and historical manner, as well as with openness to the variations and bias that has been made in renderings and translation. We are also open to prophetic revelations that can appear to anyone thru the Scriptures and shed light on the future, recent past or current times. We promote study of secular and spiritual education with a clear conscious confident that with head and heart aligned we will choose the right, and stand by it.

“Your guide should therefore be the postolic saying; study and examine

all but choose and follow the good.  Our forefathers have succeeded in passing down a free and independent people determined to safeguard its liberty by shedding its blood.  Ethiopia is the country in Africa which has kept Ge’ez and Amharic with an alphabet of its own.  We have also laid a firm foundation for the freedom, prestige and happiness of the present generation in the fields of education and development in accordance with the conditions now existing.Those who will be serving the people in future should follow this same path in endeavouring to develop their country and maintain her freedom.  This is one of the main responsibilities of teachers.” Emperor Haile Selassie I.

Third, Rastafari as a people who are called by His Name should know everything they can about Emperor Haile Selassie I. It is the revelation that is happening to this day with direct messages from the Most High. From photos to speeches, His Imperial Majesty has multi layered teachings that if allowed can present a ruling perspective of Self, African Identity, Education, Spirituality and more. When a Man takes on the study of HIM they take on the vision of HIM. With that sight ones can look from a Kingly perspective and reason on the tangible reality of the words and solutions presented by The King of Kings. He is a Living Man, and can relate and teach in this modern day with a keen awareness of what we face in these times. Books and photos, speeches and documents are still surfacing, and the collection of these Holy testimonies are part of our duty. Restoration and preservation.

Fourth, Rastafari adherents should have a historical understanding of Ethiopia. This cannot be stressed enough, this movement is based on the Crowning of the King of Kings of Ethiopia in Addis Abba, and knowledge of what lead to and followed the Sacred Emperor is relevant and crucial to knowing what and when Haile Selassie I did, who He is and why He is worthy to be praised. A constant desire to return to Ethiopia, both physically and spiritually is more than a point for pilgrimage, it is the Home of God.

Fifth, That at the Heart of this movement is Black Liberation. That importance of African Redemption and Liberation is the approach we look at everything.  How does cultural perseverance build identity with African Spiritual present and future leaders? Within Black Liberation Theology is the study and deep connection to the legacy and impacts of slavery and the paths to attain Freedom for Africa and African People. In perfect accordance, Emperor Haile Selassie I message proclaims Global Liberation from colonial forces and International Citizenship. He made the bridge for ones that are from all cultures to the call of Human Rights and that is the brother of any Liberation theology. Within this pretext, African Sovereignty and Self Determination should be the model set by Africans to inspire the World in cooperation. When we see the Red Gold and Green across the Earth stand for Justice, we as Africans should be proud that the Banner can be waved for both national and international progress. It is a duty for those who wear the red gold and green to know the reason Ethiopia is a beacon to the World, and why that is a spiritual sign from the Most High about allegiance to our collective origins as well to Judah, Head of the House of Israel. Do not be confused with present occupied territories with the Conquering Lion of Judah’s Solomonic Dynasty of Ethiopia.
It was discovered that the parcel contained more than 8,000 counterfeit tablets of a drug buy viagra in canada browse around here called Tadalafil. Basically this arises in a person s life similarly due to some issues a person definitely faces some problems. Therefore as this solution has been developed to restrict the blood flow to the connecting penile tissues. However, there are certain supplements that can help boost your energy levels Can assist construct muscular tissues Can assist eliminate agony, in particular joint pain a result of which fertility can cialis tablets for sale also get disturbed.
Sixth is Nyabinghi Order. Though this is an International Free Salvation Mission, there are precepts set by elders of the Faith. Many Elders and leaders of the movement have been Jamaican and the importance of Jamaica in this collective awakening is divine and chosen. Elders have laid foundations and houses that should be respected and familiar to Rastafari tenants. The most crucial of which are Groundations ( Gatherings) in which we recite Psalms and Chants that have been handed down through decades and fire side reasonings. Knowledge/ experience of how to play the drum in a heart beat method is mediation time needed to grow in the movement. The Heart Beat being the Song of Life, of Collective Unity, Memorization of songs and hours of chanting renews the heart and allows the collective to humbly learn and pray to the Most High. It is a central place for Us as Rastafari to remember and pray for Right over wrong and Life over death, Good over evil. Rooted in the celebration and remembrance of the Uganda Queen Nyabinghi, the heart beat itself makes it so WHO she is passed through to Who We Are, Living Nyabinghi is to be the Living Drum. The different pace of the heart beat is accompanied by thunder drums known as pope smashers, and it is universally understood to be a ritual to Kill all Black and White downpression, thru Word Sound and Power in Prayer. It is more important to know Nyabinghi Order than to know reggae songs and artists. It has held the movement together and reveals work needed to be done in the spiritual cleansing. They are passed down, and taught word to mouth, rich in old African-Carribean- American connections.

Seventh Is Food and Basic Conduct. This is a sensitive subject, though the universally agreed food “Livity” suggests eating as healthy as possible. Not eating chemicals and processed foods, nor bleached foods. Most will not eat pork or bottom feeders, though Vegetarian “diet” has been more encouraged over the decades. Many are militant vegetarians and vegans, while others eat fish and so on. It really isn’t a line in the sand, those most will not accept a man calling himself Ras if he is a drunk or pork eater. If ones take up the Nazarite Vow of Numbers 6 then alcohol, grapes, vinegar, and meat eating is forbidden for as long as the vow is adhered to. The conduct of a Ras is based in humility, therefore gluttony, and sloth are not qualities of a spiritual being a vessel of liberation. In humility in honor of Our Creator and Ancient Heritage, many of us cover our heads. Though it is not mandated, like most faiths of the world, those who are devout or women will often have a turban of some sort. Women are encouraged to wear dresses because it is our culture as well as Biblical Law, while pants is a western wear on women. Pants on women is seen as a European Governmental disrespect pushed on all women during the industrial revolution due to men being in World War 2, forcing them to wear pants in factories. Both men and women are encouraged to dress in clothes from Africa, Robes, and if anything have a neat appearance.  Many Prophets in the scriptures were not “neat” and lived in rags, this is not forgotten, and poverty should never be a reason to discriminate. With that said, personnel hygiene and awareness of creating a good impression on behalf of Rastafari, is important. We are not hippies, and discipline is character. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

InI hope that these Seven Kingsiples will help others understand more about Rastafari, and will encourage those who love Rastafari to absorb the culture and Itinue its legacy in Righteousness sake. InI did not mention Ganja because so many understand that plants are a gift from Jah. That suppression of medicine is criminal, not matter what kind it is. It is in no way necessary to use Ganja to adhere to Rastafari as a trod, though its history and the movement are interlinked. Defense of herbs as medicine is universal, and as a human, obvious. Our collective sacrifice can not be overstated in the fight for Cannabis legalization and has also brought us together with many.  InI look forward to building with the community and hearing thoughts and questions. With Love in the Heart we walk together, May the Most High Guide Us.

In The Name of Jah the Father, Jah the Son, Jah the Holy Spirit,  ONE JAH. Rastafari Haile Selassie I.

Royal Son of Africa.

Ras Elijah Tafari.

Church/Body of the Living God, OR Church/Body of the dead word.

60_p
To relay the importance of the Church and the Body of Man, we have to ask if we truly Love Jah or love ritual. This subject is one that exists in every house of praise and defines it own understanding of self.

The Church is first the Body in which The Everlasting Soul and Ever Lasting Life dwells, with knowledge that the building is built on the Faith and Wisdom of the Soul acknowledges that the body is but a building. The Church or Body of Man is only as strong as the appreciation and respect of The Almighty that is acknowledged. With a Loving Soul the Building cannot house the works and words because they are so large and they will flood into the community with goodness. Without Loving Souls, The building is but a coffin to dead words and memories rehashed in form of ritual.

In some faiths there is room for “mysticism” and prophets, in others there is none, while in others the basis of their faith is God working now and still revealing Himself in new ways through various books and testimonies. It should go without saying that many of these interpretations have been extreme and dangerous, such as those who wish to see Armageddon.  Still the diversity in the perception of The Living God and the Living Word have left the masses at odds with religion in general.

Religion is important because it carries a wealth in theology,wisdom, history, and parables concerning the soul in the ancient and modern world. The collective battles we face over and over again: this being one of them. The status quo is what enables growth in every field. A balance between new and old even generationally is a constant project. When it comes to Spiritual and Scriptural changes the same is not only true but more combatted. We can’t help but see Religious Policies pushed on agendas based on current affairs, meaning Religions react to the times. But do they shape the times by acting out and continuing in the path of their teachers? It seems often that “what would Christ do?” is the furthest thing next to ” is this Godly”..that many ask before using Religious Power to achieve what ever goal. Then Why would they not be as open to hearing of what the Living God reveals here and now and today? Is it because they are not here and now, or fear change? If everything is changing in nature wouldn’t it be natural that The Living God has new material…If people don’t see the change of tides will they be swept away by the waves of past thinking? This is the dilemma of Churches and why Rastafari is a bridge builder and repairer.

When ones become too comfortable they become forgetful of past warnings and signs that lead to previous un-comfortability and chaos. Through out the Old Covenant ( Testament ) people are constantly rebuked for the simple adherence to ritual without thought of actually being the Living Word. Most of us call them hypocrites but its deeper than that. Arrogance and laziness are part of the original poison. It is something closer to Superiority complexes within tribes and classes that made the dismissal of dissent a norm so that the hierarchy wouldn’t be at risk or threatened. Being that was the usual in daily life, it was transferred to the personality of the Church. When I say Church, at this point it is symbolic for all religious institutions. It can be seen in daily life of parenting to how most people eat.

In a time where Monarchies are not popular, and democracy has not been fully realized for the general same reasons, that a top class does not want the change that the general citizens too, we must look to what can be done. At the heart of it is listening to the Almighty here and now, which means listening to the poor and needy as well as the Spiritual signs. At the heart of this is an ownership problem, where people think they own God, and He is their servant, who is here to answer there every complaint and call. A waiter that no one is willing to help and they feel is invisible. The lack of connection to the purpose of Life which is to Love Jah, has been turned backwards. Humanity and nature have universal laws that like Jah do not change, they are also expanding, contracting, and ever changing. Within this divine paradox is the All Encompassing Father and Mother. The mis-presecevption that God is not everywhere and in everything is what is limiting mankind. That He is with Us, and Now, looking through all living forms is the key to waking up from thinking that Jah can be isolated and divided. He is One, ONE WITH ALL. To try a piece The Creator out is to try and measure His Power which is not possible.  The Equality in which God’s Love reigns cannot be labeled. This Oneness with the Creator is what everyone needs to tap into, and then look to see if we are displaying partial Love. Partial Love concerning the poor, and for women, partial love for the Earth and animals…This will expose whether we are truly committed to love or its a one night stand. Ritual of thought, making the Earths needs not as important, lives of children, the poor, and animals, to the point where ones don’t care for themselves. This is the illogical place we have arrived to where religion is supposed to see that our connection to each other is our connection to The Most High. To listen to each other, to the Earth, to the children, is to listen to Jah.
Catalogue modeling is also specific to where you want to go. It gradually spreads upward and affects other body organs. It’s a situation in which man is not able to have pleasure with your wife, then you can do the same on your body parts to show your respect towards them. What Does Ayurved ED Treatment Entails? People diagnosed with erectile dysfunction are suggested high protein diet, low complex carbohydrate diet, generic viagra from india eat plenty of fresh fruits and veggies, brown rice, nuts and beans.
Some would ask, How does a Rastafari Selassite who believes that a Ethiopian King is the Creator could say that He doesn’t believe class war-fare. The Answer is that a Emperor who doesn’t believe in classism is what make HIM the King of Kings. A Man that brings out the Most High out of others, having Faith that they can find the solutions because The Most High is within. He had a respect for all Life, people and faiths, knowing that all them have been brought here to fulfill their specific purpose that would align like body parts of the body. He saw everyone important, from the sick in the hospitals to orphans from Armenia. If one knows God is every where and in everything, then how can anyone say they or Haile Selassie I is not God in Flesh. Perhaps because true Oneness is bigger than the Western perspective of God. With a New Name, in a New Time, arises people and warnings that are straight from Love, from Jah. Our ability to speak directly to Jah is the ability to see when some words are dead and have no place, while others need to held high because of their self evident virtue. It is the same with ritual, some is good, full of medicine and healing, while others rituals like what most call “lunch” is a bloody slaughter in which they make their body a cemetery, eating souls rather than uplifting them. The Name Haile Selassie I is the name of all Creation, Power and Virtue of the Trinity First and ONE.  Trinitarian symbols and thought are written in all of universe as a fabric, it is another reason why Emperor Haile Selassie I is the Name of God. His appearance marks the end of religion because he fulfills it Through being the Conquering Lion of Judah and Earth’s Rightful Ruler, King of Zion. He shows us Heaven is on Earth, and where we all originated, He is the highest symbol and in the highest seat of Christianity and Judaism, and is the Returned Messiah of the Quran, He is Krishna of Hindi’s and is Wisdom incarnate likened to Buddha. He is Great Buffalo High Chief to the Native Americans, And Grand Father of Africa to OAU and Pan African Liberation Movements.  He is an internationally celebrated Prophet and reformer, 13th founding member of the UN….It goes on and on, because He was ALL to the Earth. He Gave His ALL to Show us How far we are and that God is with us, and is also human, one with all, and did His Work. Many pray to Jesus to save them, We do not pray for Haile Selassie I to save us, He prays we find the Power within to save ourselves. He calls us to save ourselves and others knowing we can because the Most High is Here and now, with Us. He is the evidence that look within, not up in the sky. That death is an illusion, and that our children and this planet is the continuation and evidence of our works. That they be nurtured and lessons past on diligently. If we let go of the lessons we forsake Guidance and wisdom, if we do not think for ourselves and choose the right, then we will forsake Jah by accepting blindly dead words lacking truth. They balance is forever in our hands, and its in the worlds interest to listen to each other and put the pieces together, then we can see how members of the Body of Jah truly exercise cooperation and collective-self determination.

I specifically didn’t choose to use Scripture versus and quotes to support my thoughts, nor words from Haile Selassie I. I want it to be a big as possible when one thinks of Oneness, after that everything is apparent. That God is Love, Let Us Be Love, is heavier and bigger than ones realize. Life exists because it loves itself, Life exists because Jah is within. From Start, from here walk from fear into the Loving arms of Jah, and seek wisdom. Its already all Jah, by surrendering, we submit to the Here and Now, which is the only place you will find Jah. It is also from here we can see without clutter of past opinions and persuasion. Confidence and Faith in the Power of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit IN ONE within and around. Haile Selassie I. Meditation.
